Can you send my printed papers to my email account so I can print them and send them off

Sorry but  YOU must download the PDF file and print the return to ink sign and mail.  No one else has access to your account. 

 

To get a copy of your 2018 tax return that you filed this year, sign back in to your account and either:

  • Select Download/print return if your return has been accepted.
  • Or scroll down to under Your tax returns & documents(select Show if needed) and Download/print return (PDF).
  1. Once your return has downloaded, locate the PDF and open it.
  2. Select printer icon at the top of the screen, or open the File menu in the upper-left corner and select Print if you see that.

 

 TurboTax does not mail your return for you.  You have to print it, sign it, and mail it yourself.  When you mail a tax return, you need to sign it on the middle  of the page where it says "Sign Here" and write in the date you signed it by the word "Date".  Attach copies of your W-2 and any other documents that show taxes withheld to the left side of the papers where it says "Attach Forms..."

 

When you print your return, it will print with filing instructions that tell you where to mail it.

It is not required, but is a good idea, to use a mailing service that will track your return or provide you with a receipt showing that the IRS got it--such as Fedex, UPS, or certified mail.

 

It will take about 4 weeks and then you can track the status of your return at the IRS website.

 

You can print your return by following the instructions below 

(Note:  Before you can print, your TurboTax fees must be paid)

On the IRS site you are also offered the use of an app called IRS2Go

 

If you want to switch from mailing to e-file:

NO.  No one can email or send your tax return to you.  No one else has access to your account or your tax returns.  Only you can access your return and print it for yourself.  

And emailing a tax return is unsafe.  It contains too much sensitive information to send in an email.

 

PRINT RETURN   You need to print a copy of your return?  Sign in to your account using exactly the same account and user ID that you used to prepare your return.
On the bottom of the screen find Your tax returns & documents and click on Show.  Click on the Year and Click on Download/print return (PDF)

No one can access your return but you. Do not give anyone your information to log into your account for security reasons. 

 

You must download your return and print your return off.

This is an open internet forum, so we are not able to email you any forms.

 

Please see the TurboTax FAQ for form availability table:
